Review of Lime & Lemon (Nr. 162)

One-litre pot at home, made from a mixture of Assam leaves and pieces of dried lemon peel, all sprinkled with lime flavouring. Pours clear darkish copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Intense aroma of lime and lemon, with mild malty and leafy touches and fruity hints. Bitter flavour of black tea leaves, with pronounced citric notes of lime and lemon. Astringent palate with a bitter, leafy aftertaste and citric notes. Well, a well-balanced beverage in the sense that the lemon and lime flavouring virtually deafens everything else, even though it is not as pronounced in the taste as one might expect. I like lemon tea in general, and this one is good, although I prefer the green tea version of the blend from the same tea company. Fair price (38 DKK per 100 g).
